Waipiata Country Hotel

The food is always on point.

Great location, comfy beds, good food options to purchase plus a very good free breakfast included with rooms. Staff were very friendly and helpful! Nice fire in private sitting room.

I was in an outside room and there was quite a bit of noise during the night (not sure what it was but it turned off and on at times).

Very cheap and cozy. Nice and cozy especially in such a remote location.

Dust settling around the corners

This was a lovely stop on our railtrail journey with very friendly staff and a warm inviting environment. It was a very welcome sight after pedelling through snow!! Thankyou 🥰

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was clean with everything we needed. Warm, enough blankets. Bathroom was good. Good breakfast. Dinner at the bar was good

Clean, cozy, great value for the stay.

I did arrive just before the admin left (and I appreciate the wait till the last minute), but it was already below zero outside, so it is not the best idea to keep toilet window open, it was like a freezer there, it was super cold to take a shower.

The staff were friendly. Food was delicious. We had booked the Rustic Room and were told upon arrival there was a problem with flies in that room, they showed us the room and it smelt terrible. We were offered another room for an extra $30. We took this room.

Not very clean The staff advised that none of the rooms have keys “but it should be pretty safe” The room we stayed in had a bottle of water in the fridge, there was black mould inside the lid of the bottle and on the thread at the top.

Friendly staff. Great food. Cosy and warm. Great walks nearby.

Nothing. Decided to stay on! It's not shiny and new but we didnt expect that. Great value!

Our host was friendly and efficient, even if the only one on duty, so he was kept busy. For our evening meal, we just ordered soup as we had eaten a full meal earlier in the day. It was EXCELLENT. The breakfast suited us as we could have this at any time which suited our plans for the morning.

Nothing to report. I've staying twice before, so I knew what to expect.

Ok

Cracked handbasin, Flies No tv No door lock Outside room Holes in walls filled with toilet paper Online photos misleading

Awesome atmosphere inside pub, room had extremely good water pressure which made things better.

the room was outside garden shed converted into a room, it was surreal being led outside to what i thought was an old outhouse toilet but beyond the broken garden shed door was my room. holes in the ceiling patched with old crate bottle boxes. broken glass that lets cold air in. it was a bit of a catfish with the fire in the photos as i thought that was for my room.

It was just fantastic! Great room, service, cool vibe, sweet location, with excellent pub grub. Nothing is too much trouble, truly excellent value for $, and they are pet & E bike friendly

Nada -Waipiata ticked every box

Good pub meal and atmosphere. Great location next to the Central Otago rail trail. Big comfy bed.

No option for a cooked breakfast although there was a good selection of cereals, yoghurts, fruit, and condiments for toast including oat milk for plunger coffee 😍 Shower was a little tired but good water pressure.

Good vibes

Affordability. Good value for money AND price included a great breakfast.

Outdoor areas could be tidied up a bit - remove weeds in BBQ area

Fantastic country hotel, excellent staff and great food, bonus breakfast which was lovely.

Clean, peaceful, good food, superb location

NA

Super cozy room, comfortable bed, the location was awesome and the restaurant was great!

Breakfast: n.a. Location: ideal for the cycle trips we wanted to do

Nothing not to like.

Excellent stay at a local pub. Accommodation was clean and spacious (we were a self contained unit). The meal at night was delicious and an extensive menu. Breakfast supplied was a bonus.

一点都没有

住宿不是在酒店里，后面接的棚子。太不正规了。太脏了，苍蝇虫子太多，导致我们没法住。开车2小时换了其他的地方住。太失望了。也不能退款。

Thank you so much for an amazing stressful stay. This was a perfect stay and we couldn't have been more happy. The added bonus was the restaurant the food was incredible thank you.

Super comfortable! Having the pub there was great, really good food and drinks, and once you go to your room, you can't hear anything

Great country atmosphere. Comfortable room. Delicious food. Friendly staff and locals. Excellent value for money. Will definitely be back.

Very quirky and great food great staff lovely vintage feel with modern bedroom

Only thing is no key for your door…

Excellent breakfast and a bonus to find it was included in the room rate. Very quiet even though its a country pub on a Saturday night. Nice bed & pillows.

The shared bathroom floor was extremely slippery when wet. Not able to lock the room when away. Had to leave the luggage in the car until we were back for the night.

What a great country pub! Exceptional value for money! The restaurant food was amazing and even the complementary continental breakfast was great. Clean, tidy and very comfortable.

Easy check in and parking Friendly staff. Great pub meals.

The food was great, service great and awesome atmosphere at the bar with the locals.

Nil

Everything and just as advertised. A lovely, generous meal as well, with local wines recommended and enjoyed.

Cosy, great location and amazing food

Great location, friendly people

Immaculate sheets and towels Nice breakfast Good dinners

Some maintenance required in the room

the breakfast continental spread was awesome.

everything was great.

It was a very enjoyable nights rest. They had leaks ready for us as we were late arriving did was excellent.

I have nothing that we didn't like.

Bar food was fabulous

No lock on room or bathroom door .. an easy fix . Wasn’t only me that didn’t feel safe . Not nice worrying if someone was going to come into bathroom when yr on toilet or showering. Plus asleep , no keys available for yr private room

It's cosy, bedrooms, very clean. Lots of amenities.

No TV reception on tv

Afslappet atmosfære God beliggenhed God mad

The country homily vibe !

Everything was perfect

Loved the location, was a little difficult to find but that was the fault of google maps. The room was great and the bed was very comfortable. The lounge was handy as was the free morning breakfast. The pub kitchen next door was more than happy to cater to our dietary needs. Tasty food

It was all fantastic.

Country style pub.

Nothing.

Didn’t look so good from outside, but once inside everything was great, service, food, clean / comfortable room,

Everything was great

Room was lovely

Great staff,very busy meals were long in coming but food not too bad.

Make this a compulsory stop on the Central Otago Rail Trail! The pies are outstanding, as is the other food, and there is a good selection of very cold beer. The lodging is simple but clean and very comfortable. The breakfast was self serve but lot of good options for fueling a day of biking. The place had a great vibe on a busy Sunday afternoon.

Like my stays here when traveling to Central Otago, great wee pub & nice meals.

Country atmosphere, interesting community, value for money, good breakfast, communal atmosphere,the Rustic Room was rustic as advertised which was fine

Great host, felt at home

Nothing

Was very warm and bed super comfortable. The breakfast was great with plenty of cereals, toast and fruit

The room I had was outside the staff back entrance and it was noisy with the screen door banging shut regularly until the hotel shut.

Fabulous place highly recommend

A great country hotel. Great service, fantastic food, very helpful staff.

Fantastic price, relaxed feeling

I liked the isolation of the hotel and the friendliness of the staff and locals. A comfortable room with nice en suite. The breakfast (cereal, toast etc.) included was a real bonus and a chance to meet other travelers. Also it was very good value for money!

Lovely and clean, great service with an old world feel in a quiet country setting.

Rural old country pub, we stayed on a Friday night when all the locals turned up. Large meals of country style food. Great Southern hospitality. Comfy bed. Loved it

Very impressed with the level of sevice and relaxed atmosphere. Would certainly recommend it as a place to stay in the Maniototo.

Fantastic place to stay, very clean and tidy. Very helpful and friendly. The pub has amazing food. Will be back again...

I love the friendliness of this country pub, the publican has the easy going attentive manner, the food is amazing. Id wanted to come and stay for a while since i had previously lived in duntroon and on occassion gone for a ride with others over danseys for the day and they had introduced me to waipiata country hotel, i liked going there from the first day i stepped in the door. Id always wanted to have dinner here rather than a quick lunch. It didnt disappoint.

A great place to stop. Mark and his team are super friendly and helpful. And the pies are to die for

Excellent hotel - recently decorated and staff are so friendly. Pies are fantastic too!

Classic country hotel. Lots to like. Nice ensuite room and good sized lounge (with lovely fire!) just down the hallway. Plenty of evening meal options at the bar. Good selection for the continental breakfast next morning too - great way to end our stay. Thanks Waipiata Hotel!

Very friendly and helpful staff. Great food and very good selection available. The room was ok but a small fridge could have been handy as it was a very hot day.

Nice continental breakfast, comfortable rooms and a nice beer garden

We had an excellent one night stay while on the rail trail. Very friendly and helpful staff, nice beds, good water pressure, fast wifi, covered bike parking, nice outdoor spaces, great continental breakfast which even included granola with dried raspberries, fresh fruit and plunger coffee. Hotel guests have nice shared lounge. Overall one of our finest and most memorable stays in NZ over a month of travel this trip. Couples: cheese platters available. Cyclers: Rooms include the continental breakfast, free laundry available (self-serve), ample filtered drinking water for water bottles, 50 meters off the trail. Not connected to the room itself but important to note: the pub has excellent food and drinks at a very fair price. The pies are house-made and excellent--we did Thai Lamb and Pumpkin-Spinach-Feta. The place was pretty busy on a Monday night with locals--always a great sign!

Great food

Great little country hotel in the back of beyond, very yummy food, especially the pies. Very comfortable bed with good facilities.

A great experience and good accommodation - recommended.

Ever thought about staying at a real genuine country tavern ? meet the locals, eat 'real' food locally sourced with helping sizes city pubs forgot about long ago? then this is the place for you...

Lovely country pub.Great welcome, lovely food. Reccomend it

Mark was a very welcoming host. The room was comfortable, nicely decorated and very clean. The meals in the restaurant were excellent and well priced. Would definitely recommend a stay here wether you're riding the rail trail or just passing through the area.
